807 Vermont St, San Francisco, CA 94107

807 Vermont Street, a two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1921 in Potrero Hill, has experienced several significant events and permit activities over recent years, particularly regarding unauthorized modifications and subsequent corrections. Most notably, the property faced a major compliance issue in 2021 when a ground floor unauthorized dwelling unit was reported, leading to multiple enforcement actions and permits to remove the illegal modifications.

This process, which included the removal of unauthorized living spaces such as a bedroom, lounge area, closets, half bath, shower room, wet bar, and kitchen, was officially completed in 2024 with permits showing the capping of water lines and electrical modifications. The building has undergone several substantial improvements, including a complete window replacement project in 2022 involving 36 windows in the upper unit, and roofing work, with the most recent reroofing permit issued in May 2024.

During the 2022 window replacement project, there were multiple complaints regarding construction impacts on neighboring properties, particularly concerning debris management and access issues, which were subsequently addressed. The property has maintained an active permit history, showing ongoing maintenance and compliance efforts by the owners, Harry and Roberta Ault, including resolving various building violations and complaints through proper permitting and restoration work. While there have been numerous 311 calls related to the property, most concern external issues like tree maintenance and general street cleaning, and appear to be promptly addressed.
